The former Missouri-Pacific Railroad Depot in Camden, Arkansas, is located at the southwest corner of Main and First Streets in the city's business district. It is a single-story brick building with Mediterranean Revival styling built c. 1917 during a major expansion of the Missouri-Pacific Railroad. ("The Missouri-Pacific Railroad Company incorporated and absorbed the Iron Mountain system, and for many years thereafter "Mo-Pac" was the largest and most important railroad in the state."[2])
The building was used as both a passenger and freight depot.[3]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992,[1] at which time it was vacant.[3]
